How about a TSO heads up race? I know the TSO racers bitch and complain a lot but there are some of us that would like to see more TSO races.

Is there also a TSM race like last year?

Heads up racing is just a lot of fun to watch!

Not sure about other cars but if it's a Buick you are certainly more than welcome to come and race. It's not a track rental, it's a Buick racing event, and a damn good one at that!

There will be a TSM race on Sunday, but TSO, we need to hear from you, we can do something on Friday, maybe. We have the V8 Challenge, V6 Challenge and FWD 3800 Challenge scheduled for Friday, so far. All sponsored races!

I'll be there, Rich Rezes will be there and I believe Jack Cotton will be there. That's three that I can think of. Chris Lyons, you coming to Norwalk?

If there are enough car's I'd be willing to make it a TSO Gamblers race and kick in a few bucks to a pot to race for. Aint doing it for the money anyway....

Yeah!

If you can get at least 4 cars and sponsor, we can do on Friday, but I have to check with "He who must be obeyed" Bill Wills, as his brother says. Let me know.

Usually there are plenty of people at the bigger Buick events to help you out. I wouldn't worry about it too much, just come on out and have some fun.

Roberta,

I’ve reached out to a number of people and been contacted directly by a few. I have confirmed eight people that want to run in a TSO race at Norwalk. Although I don’t have a sponsor for the race, the participants are willing to either just run for fun or to make it a gamblers race. Personally I’d like to make it a $30 gamblers race and pay 75% to the winner and 25% to the runner up. Doesn’t seem to matter either way to most of the racers, they just want to race and have fun.

Can you put a TSO race on the schedule and broadcast the details. Most of us know each other pretty well so we can run peer tech without too much trouble. We’ll all try to keep the drama in the pits to a minimum. Like to make 3 qualifying runs to set up positions on a pro ladder. We’ll run a .400 pro tree like TSM. We’ll run the same TSO rules as Salem and Indy.

Thanks Roberta, we all appreciate adding another TSO race to the season. If things go well I’ll try to get a sponsor earlier in the process to make things a little more exciting for future years!

To minimize Drama, I suggest that all TSO class racers pit together like the Mustang boys do. This should help everybody get along a little better. The other benifit is it will be tougher for each to refill his NOS bottle.
